😰Boo!!!!!!!
“In 2018, TBIJ revealed that Venky’s was selling colistin as a growth promoter.”
“Its medicated poultry feed Tylomix, which is listed on its website, contains the antibiotic tylosin, part of the macrolide class”
“Another medicated feed marketed by Venky’s for growth promotion is Amo-premix. This product contains amoxicillin.”
antibiotic neomycin, is touted to “prevent early chick mortality”, or preventative use.

Wow! 🔥 Just published 🔥 @ScienceTM A remarkable work by @BradSpellberg et Al
A Protein-Free Vaccine Stimulates Innate Immunity and protects against bacterial & fungal pathogens that cause HAIs
If it works in humans the way it does in mice? Game changer! https://t.co/FuB4ALKEeE
Wow!
🔥The PALACE RCT 🔥 @TrubianoJason et Al @JAMAInternalMed
Direct oral penicillin challenge in patients with a low-risk penicillin allergy was noninferior compared with standard-of-care skin testing followed by oral challenge
Thanks @Inox94

bursting with pride for Josh, stellar pharmacy resident, & Viv + Peyton, 2 amazing students (now pharmacists!) who collaborated on implementing this change + collecting the data over 3+ years.

#AMR is a problem.
Antibiotics over-the-counter (OTC) in many countries.
Animal use up to 80% of all ABX (most OTC)!
Most doctors say “just stop OTC”
After a summit @WHO I am not sure this would be:
fair, just or possible
But things can improve

The best 'antibiotic' for recurrent UTI is a prescription for...
Water 💦💦💦
+1.5 L/day associated with ~1/2 the number of UTIs and antibiotic courses

@sadiegiuliani We just implemented BioFire BCID2 and ran into the same problem. Was told that EPIC couldn’t indent the species underneath the Enterobacterales 🤷♂️ so we also just added clarification in guidance document as well.
The producers of the amazing movie Resistance are making a new film to convey the value of antibiotics in modern medicine. They seek patient stories. Contact Michael Graziano, [email protected].
Double checking against #CLSI,
Cefazolin MIC 8 should be resistant
PipTazo MIC 64 should be resistant.
Asked lab to re-run susceptibilities and extension to check cefoxitin.
Still working with lab to update MIC breakpoints.
Hey #IDtwitter ,what’s the mechanism of resistance? Inhibitor resistant TEM-1 beta lactamase?
BioFire BCID2 (-) for CTX-M and carbapenemases.
On piptazo EI, slowly improving. WBC 22 -> 16 in 3 days, devervesced after 1 day.
Would you use ceftriaxone or cefepime? Why?
